How will you react if?

[ottomaddox]

I will be happy.

It depends on the big moments: big save, a blocked shot, game winning goal, overtime, etc.

Probably jump up and down. There will be many fist pumps. Call my Dad who most likely will be in tears.

 

[Cams]

I would also likely venture downtown Windsor (Oullette Ave - our Yonge St.) depending on timing. It was crazy when Canada won gold in 2002, and when Windsor won the Mem Cup.

 

[Obliviate]

Leafs win the Stanley Cup.

No seriously, I got the idea from the other "how will you react" thread.

My answer:

First, I will yell and scream and when thats done I will bawl my eyes out. I am 55 and been there through it all and I am sure it will hit me. Never missed a pre-season or regular season game. I will then hand out snotrags to all my buddies because they will also bawl there eyes out. Then we party for a week no sleep.

How about you?

Blackout drunk sounds like an appropriate way to celebrate.

This sounds about right. Drunk enough to forget they won, so you can re-watch it the next evening. Repeat again, and again for a week.

 

[SnizzNasty88]

I'll probably spend the night in jail..

 

[connormcmuffin]

Breath a sigh of relief, stop obsessing so much on the minutia of Leafs day to day hockey, generally enjoy life more.

 

[Hurt]

1. Cry till I can't cry anymore
2. Hug the boys (ferda)
3. Hug my partner
4. Hug anyone else that wants to hug

 

[Leafslet]

cry.

 

[TakeTheBody]

Gud win.

 

[Hurt]

I've already told my director that I won't be showing up for the next 2 business days so leave me alone.

 

[7even]

Shitpost on HFBoards probably.

 

[7even]

Necrobump a bunch of TWS posts.

 

[Optimist]

I would be quietly content. And try not to rub it in to friends that are fans of other teams. Unless they are Habs fans. They are fair game!!

 

[Polaris1010]

I don't know.

Never seen anything like that before, if it actually happens.

You got to be as old as Don Cherry to have seen the Leafs win a cup.

The Toronto Maple Leafs never made it to a finals since then.

 

[Polaris1010]

Who knows.

Maybe I will react like my picture. In a multiple of exponential 10 times of course.

Maybe to infinity.

Go Leafs Go!
Go Leafs Go!
Go Leafs Go!

Quietly content is a good phrase. I literally do not know a soul who watches hockey with any seriousness. Even the dudes on my beer team don't really watch the NHL. Me and my old man would yuck it up, that's about it.

 

[Buds17]

A Cup win hasn't happened for a long time, and might not happen again for a long time after it next occurs. I'd enjoy it immensely.

That noble bastard...I knew there must have been a reason for that game 7 performance!

 

[Brock Radunske]

The old man and I would fly up to TO on a red-eye and go on a rip.

I've pondered this..... I can't say how until it happens. If it's a deep run, I want to catch some games with my Dad, and hopefully the moment too. I don't know if I'd want to be in a restaurant/bar or in the comfort of home. I grew up being coached by my Dad and we are both huge Leafs fans. He is turning 70 next June and he's witnessed Stanley Cup glory. I was born in '73 so have not even come close. My wife is a Leafs fan kind of by default (meaning doesn't really follow much, but still cheers for them) and her Dad who lives with us is a huge Leafs fan - lived in TO and actually worked at and had season tickets at MLG years ago. So I am torn as how to it will go down should it get that far.

Will it bring tears? Just a big goofy grin? I can't say!!!!!

I was super excited and happy when Windsor won the Mem Cup back to back (as a season ticket holder for like 20+ years), my 49ers won Super Bowls (back to back). Watched my Jays win the World Series back to back and was very excited about it. But really....the Leaf are on another level. Mind you....I do like this back to back trend for "my teams".....

I used to listen to the games on the radio with my grandmother, who was a huge fan, in the 60's. In those days, only the Saturday games were on TV, and only starting in the second period. I watched playoff games with my Dad, and the last couple of games from the 72 summit series. Cherish the memories.

 

[WillyC]

probably go with a Tattoo

 

[DanM]

I will sit in silence. I will be beyond stunned, but have the biggest smile on my face ever. After the shock wears off, I will most likely sob like a baby...

 

[diceman934]

Easy scream and call up my friends who are Hab fans. Book a flight to Toronto for the parade or maybe I am already there. So hit Young Street.

Post on the main boards as well as the Habs board essentially saying “suck it”.

Party for several days and again repeat the calls every few hours to my Hab friends Likely having to block my number. Buy a new Leaf flag and extent the poll to full height so all can see.

Ensure that my kids and grandkids are all at the cup parade with me.

Sober up!

 

[BM14]

I went through something similar this year. I'm a huge Philly Eagles fan and we won our first SB this year. I had tears of joy.

 

[Griffin76]

This is exactly how my friends and I looked sitting on a buddy's couch back in high school watching the Jays win back to back championships. Can't wait to see what we look like when the Leafs do the same thing.
